Frequent reasons for network problems include:
- Reduced local internet speeds (without a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server sites
To address these issues, consider the following approaches:
- Verify your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN disabled to detect any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi connection is unstable, switch to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, choose a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to remain connected to the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to another server within that region.
- Keep performing these tests until you discover the best server for your needs.
